Huntsville, Alabama – home of NASA, Rocket Scientist Werner Von Braun, The US Space & Rocket Center, Redstone Arsenal and King Cotton – provides many stories that are locally inspired but that are often of national interest as well. Topics include current Mayor Tommy Battle, The Historic Huntsville Depot, and picturesque Big Spring Park.
The scuttlebutt on the streets is that City and State officials have had it. This mayhem must be stopped! Reports at this time indicate that a contingency of armored vehicles has been commissioned from Redstone Arsenal with backup to arrive from Ft. McClellan within the week. Residents will be asked to move, and if they refuse, their homes will be bulldozed while they are still inside.
God I love Panoply and Fireworks! Here’s a neat pic I took last night.
At face value, the entire situation is absolutely ridiculous and completely inexcusable. The facility isn’t really all that large.

Got my green on! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

This is another rerun reproduced in high definition, at least when compared to internet video 10 years ago. I was using a digital video camera that was then state of the art, never-the-less technically challenged, compared to digital video cameras today.
Mostly, I think some folks just need a reason to party! This photo taken just a few minutes ago is Huntsville’s first Mardi Gras parade.
Today, when you go to the store to buy your goods and services, you will be met with an additional one percent sales tax. Last fall, right before Christmas, when no one was paying attention, the Huntsville City Council unanimously passed the sales tax increase – and today is your lucky day!
I think maybe the kids around here, and a bunch of grups too, got some extra time off for snow. But, who am I to criticize, since I too stayed in doing little to attempt any usual work… except a makeover for my mobile boots!
